Austin, Tex.. Oct. 5, 189.
One of the scare-crows used by the
advocates of the single gold standard
U the false representation that if the
policy of the free and unlimited coin
age of silver should be adopted it would
cut in two the wages of laborers and
compel them to take 50-cent dollars with
out an increase of the rate of their
wages; that those receiving salaries
would get but one-half the pay they
now receive; that those having money
on deposit in savings banks would only
receive from the banks in return for
their deposits, 50-cent dollars, which
would be but the one-half of what
would be due them; that the endow
ment funds of colleges and universities
would be reduced one-half in value;
as would all trust funds.
This frightful statement Is repeated
day by day by the newspapers and
other advocates of the single gold
standard, as a controlling argument, to
prevent the people from voting for the
i-andidates who represent the policy of
the five and unlimited coinage of silver.
The newspapers and men who are urg
ing this statement know it to be a
stupendous falsehood. They make it
look as plausible as they can, and ring
the changes on it in every possible
form. And by this means have de
reived and are deceiving and mislead
ing thousands of honest people, who
may not be able to detect the fraud
which is being practiced on them.
What are the real facts as to this?
The gold standard advocates, as the
basis of their false statements, com
pare silver bullion divested of the quali
ty of money, uncoined and not a legal
tender, with gold, which is by law
coined into money and made a legal
tender in payment of public dues and
all debts, to the amount stamped on
each coin. Is this an honest com
parison? Does it speak the truth?
Poes it not, in effect, assert a thinly
disguised, but gross and monstrous,
falsehood? Let us see. If congress and
the nations should prevent the coin
age of gold bullion, as lias been done
as to silver bullion, depriving it by
law of the qualities of money, taking
rrom it its debt-paying quality, then
the gold bullion would not be money.
no more than silver bullion is now.
And the gold bullion would become a
commodity as silver bullion is now, and
would simply bring what it would be
worth for use in the arts. The same
is true as to silver.
To make an honest comparison of
gold and silver, and to tell the honest
truth, we must compare gold coin, in
vested with the legal tender quality.
with silver coin invested with the same
quality. Doing that, we find the silver
coins in the Vnited States, not silver
bullion, worth as much in the purchase
of property and in the payment of
fleets as the coins of gold. And we find
that more than one billion of dollars of
slver coins in circulation in Kurope are
at par with gold. Why is this? Sim
ply because both are coined with the
value or the coins fixed by law.
lias any one ex-cr seen a iiO-cent dol
lar in this country? Of course not. And
wny not? Because our more than 1400,.
000.000 silver dollars, or their represen
tatives, are the coined money of the
United States, their valued fixed bv
law and they are made a legal tender
for all debts. Hence, those now coined
are as good as gold.
Xo laborer, no person drawing a sal
ary, no depositor in a bank will be
paid, nor will any offer be made to pay
them, with silver bullion. They may be
paid in coinea siiver.as they may now be
lawfully paid in coined silver; but the
dollars in which they could be so paid
would be 100-cent dollars, and equal to
K"ld, because they would buy as much
property and pay as much of debt at
ine same number of gold dollars.
If It be said that the stamp of the
government and the mandate of the
law make the coin of greater value than
the bullion, the answer may be: made
that the present value of gold is fixed
by law.
An act of the British parliament
passed In the year 1844, fifty-two years
a so, requires the Bank of England to
purchase all the gold presented to it
at 3 pounds, 17 shillings and 9 pence per
ounce. That fixes the price all over the
world, less the cost of transportation
to London. So that its price is not
governed by its intrinsic value, but by
an act of parliament: and this makes
it in that sense fiat money.
Money is the creature of law. The
material of which it is made is not
money until made so by law, whether
it be gold or silver or paper. The gov
ernment or the banks issue their notes
to circulate as money. These notes
nave no Intrinsic value. Their being
money arises from the fact that their
issue Is authorized by law. the promise
to redeem them in coin, and, in some
eases, the making of them a legal ten
der. So that It is the operation of the
law which makes money, and not the
material of which it is composed:
though gold and silver are recognised
as more suitable material out of which
to make money than any thing else.
If gold and silver bullion vmnumn
why the laws of this and other coun
tries defining the degree of fineness of
the metal, the amount of alloy In the
coins, their weight, and the value of
each coin, and making them a legal
tender?
The falsehood resorted to by the gold
standard advocates has for its object
to deceive the American people into
voting for a policy by which one-halt
f the standard money of this country
ras stricken down, thus reducing the
volume of the money which fixed the
values of all the other property, from
$7,500,900,000 to l3.2a0.uW.vW: and mak
ing a coresponding reduction in prop
ret y values: parlyzing industry, arrest
ing enterprise, rendering agriculture,
the controlling industry of this coun
try, unprofitable: producing an amount
of financial distress and of bankruptcy
such as was never Ixfnre known in
this country and causing tens of
thousands ff men to be denied employ,
ment and their families to suffer for
the want of the necessaries of life, and
causing thore who still have wyrk to
woik on su-iri unie, ana lining tne
country with tramps. All this wrong
and suffering in order to increase the
value of bonds and other credits and
money in the hands of the rich, while
sinking the great mass of the people,
the working people, the common peo
ple, the real creators of wealth.
deeper and deeper into poverty and
wretchedness.
Will the people allow themselves to
be deceived by such a device Into help
ing to perpetuate the gold standard
policy, and to put themselves into a
condition of financial slavery to the
money changers and aristocrats of
America and Kurope?
The man who talks about 50-cent
dollars shows his Ignorance on the sub
ject; or, if he is not ignorant, that he
Is attempting by falsehood and fraud
to deceive others to their great injury.
Tou may inquire what influence 1
think the free and unlimited coinage
of silver, at the ratio of 16 to 1. will
have on the purchasing power of gold
and silver money. If such coinage
shall increase the volume of circulat
ing money the effect will be, to the ex
tent of that increase, to raise the prices
of commodities, and in the same pro
portion to reduce the purchasing power
of money. Stated in another way. it
will make property dearer and money
cheaper in proportion to the amount
of the increase of the volume of mon
ey. And this is the reason why the
plutocrats so earnestly oppose free
coinage. It is their policy and to their
Interest to have dear money and cheap
property arid labor. While it is to the
interest and should be the policy of
the industrial classes, who make the
wealth of the country, to have a suf
ficient supply of money to stimulate
enterprise and industry, and make the
country prosperous and the people con
tended and happy. And by restoring
silver as a part of the standard money
the demand for gold will be somewhat
reduced, and it will, to that extent,
be less valuable as compared with the
property of the country. But the free
coinage of silver v ill cause no serious
disturbance to the business of the coun

Liberty and plutocracy are Incom
patible. If the few may control the
means of livelihood of the many there
can be no liberty. It is only necessary
to look about us today and note the
devices adopted for coercion of the peo
ple into support of Mark Hanna and
his puppet to estimate how slender a
shred of liberty the encroachments of
plutocracy have left to the people.
"Vote for Hanna," cry some to their
employes, "or see wages cut and your
positions forfeited." "Vote for our
ticket." cry others, "or expect sujh a
calling in of loans by our banks and
trust companies that you will be ru
ined and your property put under the
hammer." "Vote for us," cry others,
"or we will build you no more elevated
railroads, we will charge you more to
carry your wheat and cotton to market,
we will repudiate your Insurance poli
cies, we will even deny you a liveli
hood. Vote for our man or we brand
you as anarchist and communist, and
declare you should be shot down."

Bryan is caricatured, just as Lincoln

even as the devil, and in many similar
ways. Whether Bryan's political views
are-entirely correct or not. who can
deny that he Is a citizen of whom any
nation in the world might boast?
Whether we consider the sustained
ability of his addresses, his gentleman
ly endurance of slander and misrepre
sentation, his unsullied public career,
or the magnetism of his unaffected
cordiality to the sweat-stained masses
that greet him at every depot, we can
not avoid admiring him as a sturdy
specimen of our American manhood.
Compare him with the hagged indi
vidual, who trembles In his mortgaged
house lest Hanna may foreclose.
Compare him with that unfortunate
Napoleon who has already met his
Wellington and surrendered his con

A very Bimilar cetemony was per

married by a clergymau in New York
to a man who at the time of the mar

bridegroom was represented in the cere

the necessary responses and signature
as his proxy. Tho two lovers had been
engaged for a long time, and Miss
Maple wished to bear the name of her
betrothed even though she could do so

The all important ring is sometimes
forgotten, and in more than ' one casa
the door key of tlie church has had to
do duty, bnt it is not often that portions
of the marriage service are omitted. In
a southern town, however, alittlowhile
ago, after the party had lelt the church,
it was discovered that the clergyman
had forgotten tho words, "with this
ring I thee wed," etc., thus relieving
the bridegroom of the most serious part
of his obligation:, and the fair brido
was minus a wedding ring. Instead of
sitting down to the breakfast the party
hurried back to the church and were thus
practically married twice in one day.
Cupid rau amuck somo years ago
among tho old folk of a Georgia town.
An old soldier, 78 years of age, led to
the altar an aged dumeel who had seen
72 summers. There were three brides
maid, whose ages respectively were GO,
68 aud 70. They were all spinsters.
The best man, who was 75, brought the
combined ages np to 423 years.
An unusual kind of marriage was
celebrated in Xew York recently. Thia
was between a couple both deaf and
dumb. The y held prayer books while a
frieud pointed cat the different passages
in the service as they were epoken by
the clergyman, and they made the cus
tomary responses in the deaf and dumb
alphabet.
An ingenious couple once conceived
the idea of being married by phono
graph. In the place where the bride
groom resided he aud the minister went
over the marriage service, and be recited
the proper responses into the instrument.
The phonograph was sent to the lady,
she willingly supplying the requisite,
"I will," and "I do" in the presence of
her pastor, who then pronounced the
pair united in matrimony. Ho explana
tion is given of how they got over the

A well known anthropologist, in de
scribing various marriage customs, re
fers to a strange sort of symbolical mar

trees, plants, animals and inanimate
objects. If any one proposes to enter
upon a cnicn which is net in aceordanre

that ill luck which is sore to follow

It looks as if some force must have
been in operation before 187S to keep

Specimens of the so-callrC Mexican

surprising that the McKinleyites have
been asulng them at a discount. If
the fellows who have been dealing In
this counterfeit money are ever caught
in Mexico tney will find trouble.
The Republican national committee

counterfeit Mexican dollars. They re
